THANK YOU SO MUCH
After install the plugin….What’s next step…..?
Thanks
After i followed all those steps, the toolbars for Rabbit are still not there.
Hi there,
Could you please let us know what version of Rhino are you using?
Please note that we haven’t updated Rabbit in a while, so it currently doesn’t work with Rhino 6.
Thanks for your kindly sharing! It helps me a lot!
However, I have a question about the boundary of the cell grids.
I mean, I there any way to control the wrapping?
Because wrapping can be switched off though to prevent flying geometries, when stacking individual game generations to produce a three-dimensional Game of Life in recording mode.
Thanks!

Hello Jason,
We are glad to hear that Rabbit is useful to you! Unfortunately, there isn’t an option to control the wrapping. A workaround is to create larger grids so that the cells don’t “fall” out of the boundary.
If you are into coding you can have a look at the source code and try to customize the plugin to your needs: https://github.com/morphocode/rabbit

Any update on when this will be compatible with Rhino 6?
Hello there,
Thank you for your interest in Rabbit!
We will likely update Rabbit to work with Rhino 6 in the future. Currently, we do not have an exact date, but we will keep you posted.
Please note that Rabbit is open-source, so you can fork the repository and adapt it to your needs: https://github.com/morphocode/rabbit

Hi,
I followed all the steps as well and it still doesn’t show up in my toolbars. I am using Rhino 5 that I have just downloaded and installed today, along with the latest version of grasshopper. Any potential leads on why am I having trouble?
Best,
Andreea
Hi there, thanks for informing regarding compatibility with Rhino 6 . Wanted to ask is Rabbit available for Rhino 6 now ? Thanks
Hi,
Is there a compatible version for Rhino6 available yet? If not, are there any simillar plugins that can be used to achieve the same this?
